In context

34 To crush under foot all the prisoners of the earth,

35 to turn away the right of a man before the face of the Most High,

36 to subvert a man in his cause, the Lord doesn’t approve.

37 Who is he who says, and it comes to pass, when the Lord doesn’t command it?

38 Doesn’t evil and good come out of the mouth of the Most High?

39 Why should a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins?

40 Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the LORD.
